Why do I get the feeling no one cares? Must be the screwed up people in the area where I live.
I think folks care, but can’t do much (Animals like the maggot that beat her don’t care, but decent folks do, and don’t want to see anyone attacked regardless of race)
In college, I went to stay in Dorchester Mass with a friend’s family during winter break, and got up in the morning and took a stroll. Took me 5 minutes to undo all the locks on the door. When I got back, the parents had a horrified look on their faces and asked me where I’d been. I told them and they gasped, and said “don’t ever go down that street again, especially alone!”
Being the naive country bumping I was, it just didn’t dawn on me that so emplacement could,be so da group that you take your life In Your hands just taking a walk in certain. Areas.
I guess my point is, I talked with the parents a d asked why they live like they do in that area, they explained to me tht they grew up,there, knew a lot of the old timers there, who were good hard working decent folks,, and despite the high crime, it was still a decent place if you knew where to go and where to avoid.
I guess ya gotta chip through the slag to get to the gold underneath In Some areas, but when 6ou do, you find some truly decent folks, even whenit seems there aren’t any
Maybe because it’s hard to garner sympathy when you’re here in the US on a student visa to study something trivial and you’re out at 4AM and get mugged after you go to a rapper concert. That city if FULL of those.....
Why do I get the feeling no one cares?

I think its partly due to being de-sensitized by endless news about crime.
